For example, the fingerprint recognition device has a preset fingerprint template corresponding thereto. Further, the fingerprint recognition device can collect a fingerprint image, and pass the recognition when a matching value between the fingerprint image and the preset fingerprint template is greater than a corresponding recognition threshold.

Further, a multi-biometric recognition mode in the embodiment of the disclosure may include two or more recognition operations, for example, a fingerprint recognition is performed at first, and then a face recognition can be performed after the passing of the fingerprint recognition, or, the fingerprint recognition and the face recognition can be performed synchronously. The multi-biometric recognition mode has better security than a single biometric recognition mode (for example, unlocking just by fingerprint recognition), and thus, the multi-biometric recognition mode is becoming more and more popular.

A front camera 23 can be used as a face recognition device.

Referring to FIG. 1B, FIG. 1B is a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 includes an application processor (AP) 110, a first biometric device 120, a second biometric device 130, and an environmental sensor 160. The AP 110 is connected with the first biometric device 120, the second biometric device 130, and the environmental sensor 160 via a bus 150.

In one possible embodiment, the operation of acquiring environmental parameters is performed in parallel with the operation of acquiring the first biometric information.

In one possible example, the environmental sensor 160 is specifically configured to:

FIG. 1C is a schematic flowchart of an unlocking control method according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The unlocking control method is applied to an electronic device, whose physical map and structural diagram can be referred to FIG. 1A or FIG. 1B. The unlocking control method described in this embodiment includes the following steps.

101, one or more environmental parameters are acquired.

Environmental parameters may include, but are not limited to, ambient brightness, weather, humidity, temperature, magnetic field interference intensity, environmental color, and the like. When the unlocking operation is triggered, the environment parameters are acquired. The ambient brightness can be detected by an ambient light sensor, the weather can be obtained from a weather application, the magnetic field interference intensity can be detected by a magnetic field detecting sensor, and the environment color can be acquired by a camera.

102, first biometric information is acquired.

A first biometric recognition device corresponding to the first biometric information may be invoked to acquire the first biometric information.

Optionally, the foregoing step 102 of acquiring the first biometric information may be performed as follows:

acquiring the first biometric information according to the environmental parameters.

Acquisition parameters corresponding to the first biometric recognition device may be obtained according to the environmental parameters, and the first biometric recognition device is controlled to acquire the first biometric information according to the acquisition parameters. The acquisition parameters may include, but are not limited to, intensity of fill light, focusing time, zoom, aperture size, exposure time, and the like.

Optionally, the operation of acquiring the environmental parameters is performed in parallel with the operation of acquiring the first biometric information. That is, two processes can be adopted and executed in parallel, one for obtaining environmental parameters and the other for acquiring first biometric information. Alternatively, two threads can be adopted, one thread is used to obtain environmental parameters, the other thread is used to acquire first biometric information, and the two threads are executed in parallel.

Further, the step 101 of acquiring environmental parameters may include the following steps:

11, environmental information of a specified period of time is obtained by controlling the environmental detecting sensor, wherein the specified period of time begins with a start time of the operation of acquiring the first biometric information, and ends with a completion time of the operation of acquiring the first biometric information; 12, determining the environmental parameters according to the environmental information.

The environmental detecting sensor includes at least one of the following: an ambient light sensor, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a magnetic field detecting sensor, and the like. The above environmental information can be understood as data collected by the environmental detecting sensor. The environmental detecting sensor may be used to acquire the environmental information of the specified period, wherein a start time of the specified time period is an acquisition start time corresponding to the first biometric information, and an end time is an acquisition completion time corresponding to the first biometric information. And the environmental parameters are determined based on the environmental information. Specifically, the environmental information in the specified time period may be averaged, thereby to obtain the environmental parameter. For example, the ambient brightness values in a period of time correspond to a curve, and the ambient brightness values are averaged to form an ambient brightness as the environmental parameter.

Optionally, between the foregoing step 102 and a later step 104, the following steps may be further included:

determining whether the current environment is a weak light environment according to the environmental parameters, and performing image enhancement processing on the first biometric information when it is. The step 104 is performed as follows: a first biometric recognition is performed, according to a first biometric control parameter, on the first biometric information after the image enhancement processing.

The image enhancement processing may include, but is not limited to, image denoising (e.g., wavelet transform for image denoising), image restoration (e.g., Wiener filtering), dark visual enhancement algorithm (e.g., histogram equalization, grayscale stretching, and so on).

Optionally, between the foregoing step 102 and a later step 104, the following steps may be further included:

A1, performing image quality evaluation on the first biometric information, and obtaining an image quality evaluation value; A2, performing image enhancement processing on the first biometric information when the image quality evaluation value is lower than a preset quality threshold.

The preset quality threshold may be set by the user or set by the system by default. The first biometric information may be an image, and may be processed by image quality evaluation to obtain the image quality evaluation value, and the quality of the first biometric information is determined by the image quality evaluation value. When the image quality evaluation value is greater than or equal to the preset quality threshold, the first biometric information is considered to be qualified, and when the image quality evaluation value is less than the preset quality threshold, the first biometric information may be considered to be unqualified, thus image enhancement processing may be performed on the first biometric information.

In the above step A1, at least one image quality evaluation index may be adopted to evaluate the image quality of the first biometric information, thereby to obtain the image quality evaluation value.

A number of image quality evaluation indexes may be included, and each image quality evaluation index corresponds to a weight. Thus, when performing image quality evaluation on the first biometric information with each of the image quality evaluation indexes, corresponding evaluation results can be obtained. Finally, the obtained evaluation results are weighted to obtain the image quality evaluation value. The image quality evaluation indexes may include, but are not limited to, average value, standard deviation, entropy, sharpness, signal to noise ratio, and the like.

It should be noted that when the image quality is evaluated just using a single evaluation index, it has certain limitations. Therefore, multiple image quality evaluation indexes can be used to evaluate the image quality. It is not the more evaluation indexes, the better the evaluation result, when evaluating image quality. Because the more evaluation indexes, the higher the computational complexity of the image quality evaluation process, and such may not result in a better effect to evaluate the image quality. Thus, 2-10 image quality evaluation indexes may be adopted to evaluate the image quality, in the case of high requirements for image quality evaluation. Specifically, the number of image quality evaluation indexes and which indexes are selected, are determined according to specific implementation situations. Of course, the image quality evaluation indexes should be selected in combination with specific scenes, and the image quality evaluation indexes selected in the dark environment and that selected in the bright environment are different.

Optionally, in the case that the image quality evaluation accuracy is not high, just one image quality evaluation index may be used for evaluation. For example, the image waited to be processed is evaluated by the entropy, it can be considered that the larger the entropy, the better the image quality, and conversely, the smaller the entropy, the worse the image quality.

Optionally, in the case that the image quality evaluation accuracy is relative high, the image may be evaluated by several image quality evaluation indexes, the weight of each image quality evaluation index may be set, when obtaining a number of image quality evaluation values, a final image quality evaluation value may be obtained according to the image quality evaluation values and corresponding weights thereof. For example, three quality evaluation indexes are A index, B index and C index, the weight of A is a1, the weight of B is a2, and the weight of C is a3. When the indexes A, B and C are used to evaluate the image quality of one certain image, the image quality evaluation value corresponding to A is b1, the image quality evaluation value corresponding to B is b2, and the image quality evaluation value corresponding to C is b3, then the final image quality evaluation value=a1b1+a2b2+a3b3. In general, the larger the image quality evaluation value, the better the image quality.

103, the first biometric control parameter and the second biometric control information corresponding to the environmental parameters are determined.

The above step 103 of determining the first biometric control parameter and the second biometric control information corresponding to the environmental parameters may be implemented as follows:

determining, according to a preset mapping relationship between preset environmental parameters and preset first biometric control parameters, a first biometric control parameter corresponding to the environmental parameters; and determining, according to a preset mapping relationship between preset environmental parameters and preset second biometric control information, second biometric control information corresponding to the environmental parameters.

The mapping relationship between preset environmental parameters and preset first biometric control parameters can be preset. After acquiring the environmental parameters, the first biometric control parameter corresponding to the environmental parameter can be determined, according to the mapping relationship. Similarly, the mapping relationship between the environmental parameters and the second biometric control parameters may be preset, and after the environmental parameters are acquired, the second biometric control parameter corresponding thereto may be determined according to the mapping relationship.

104, a first biometric recognition is performed on the first biometric information according to the first biometric control parameter.

A first preset biometric template information may be pre-stored, and it is provided before performing the step 101. Based on the first biometric control parameter, the first biometric recognition is performed on the first biometric information. Specifically, the first biometric information is collected by a first biometric device, and then first biometric control parameter, such as a first recognition threshold, a first recognition algorithm, is selected corresponding to the environmental parameters. The first biometric information is matched with the first preset biometric template information based on the first recognition algorithm. When a matching value of the two is greater than a first recognition threshold, it can be considered that the recognition is passed, otherwise it can be considered that the recognition is not passed.

105, second biometric information is acquired when the first biometric recognition is passed.

When the first biometric information is recognized, the second biometric information can be obtained. A second biometric recognition device is invoked to obtain the second biometric information. When the first biometric information is not recognized, the user is prompted with a failure message.

Optionally, the above step 105 of acquiring the second biometric information can be implemented as follows:

acquiring the second biometric information according to the environmental parameters.

Acquisition parameters corresponding to the second biometric recognition device may be obtained according to the environmental parameters, and the second biometric recognition device is controlled to acquire the second biometric information according to the acquisition parameters. The acquisition parameters may include, but are not limited to, intensity of fill light, focusing time, zoom, aperture size, exposure time, and the like.

106, a second biometric recognition is performed on the second biometric information according to the second biometric control parameter.

A second preset biometric template information may be pre-stored, and it is provided before performing the step 101. Based on the second biometric control parameter, the second biometric recognition is performed on the second biometric information. Specifically, the second biometric information is collected by the second biometric device, and then second biometric control parameter, such as a second recognition threshold, a second recognition algorithm, is selected corresponding to the environmental parameters. The second biometric information is matched with the second preset biometric template information based on the second recognition algorithm. When a matching value of the two is greater than a second recognition threshold, it can be considered that the recognition is passed, otherwise it can be considered that the recognition is not failed.

107, when the second biometric information is recognized, a next unlocking process is performed.

The next unlocking process may be an unlocking operation, or, maybe waiting to acquire third biometric information.

For example, the first biometric information may be face information, the second biometric information may be iris information. When the embodiment of the disclosure is executed, the environment parameter may be obtained, the face information may be obtained, the face recognition control parameters corresponding to the environmental parameter (e.g., in weak light environment, face recognition threshold can be reduced, face recognition algorithm with low complexity is adopted) are obtained, and iris recognition control parameters corresponding to the environmental parameter (for example, in low light environment, iris recognition threshold is lowered, iris recognition algorithm with low complexity is adopted) are obtained. Further, the face information is recognized based on the face recognition control parameters, and after the face recognition is passed, the iris information is recognized based on the iris recognition control parameters. After the iris recognition is passed, the unlocking process can be performed, or, a next biometric recognition operation, for example, a fingerprint recognition may be performed.

The embodiment of the disclosure may be intermediate operations of a multi-biometric mode. For example, a multi-biometric mode is: vein recognition+face recognition+iris recognition. In the disclosure, the first biometric information corresponds to face information, the second biometric information corresponds to iris information. Then, after the vein recognition is performed and passed in the multi-biometric mode, the embodiment of the disclosure may be executed, that is, the environment parameter is obtained, then the first biometric information . . . , and so on, i.e., steps 101-107 are sequentially performed and completed.

It can be seen that, the embodiment of the disclosure includes the operations of: acquiring one or more environmental parameters; acquiring first biometric information; determining one or more first biometric control parameters and one or more second biometric control parameters corresponding to the one or more environmental parameters; performing a first biometric recognition on the first biometric information according to the first biometric control parameters; when the first biometric information is recognized, acquiring second biometric information and performing a second biometric recognition on the second biometric information according to the second biometric control parameters; when the second biometric information is recognized, performing a next unlocking process. Thus, control parameters of recognition processes can be determined to be suitable for the environment, and the recognition processes are controlled based on these control parameters, thereby improving the pass rate and the efficiency of the multi-biometric recognition.

FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart of an unlocking control method according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The unlocking control method is applied to an electronic device, whose physical map or structural diagram is illustrated in FIG. 1A or FIG. 1B. The unlocking control method described in this embodiment includes the following steps.

201, an environmental parameter is acquired.

202, first biometric information is acquired.

203, a first biometric control parameter and second biometric control information corresponding to the environmental parameter are determined.

204, a first biometric recognition is performed on the first biometric information according to the first biometric control parameter.

205, a matching value is obtained when the first biometric is recognized.

When the first biometric is recognized, it is indicated that the matching value thereof is greater than the first recognition threshold.

206, the second biometric control information is adjusted according to the matching value.

A correspondence between the matching values and second identification thresholds or second recognition algorithms may be preset, and the second biometric control information is adjusted according to the correspondence.

For example, the correspondence between two matching values may be preset, for example, the sum of the two matching values is required to be greater than 170%, then, when a first matching value is 90%, then a second matching value is only needed to reach 80%, to be recognized. When the first match value is 95%, then the second match value only needs to reach 75%. Thus, it can achieve dynamic adjustment for recognition thresholds.

Optionally, the first biometric information corresponds to a first recognition threshold, and the first recognition threshold is smaller than the matching value. The foregoing step 206 of adjusting the second biometric control information according to the matching value includes:

61, determining a difference between the matching value and the first recognition threshold;

62, determining, according to a preset correspondence between numerical ranges and adjustment factors, a target adjustment factor corresponding to the difference;

63, adjusting the second biometric control information according to the target adjustment factor.

The adjustment factor may include at least one of the following: an algorithm identifier of the second identification algorithm (the algorithm identifies an application corresponding to the algorithm), a threshold reduction coefficient (for reducing the second recognition threshold), and a reduced recognition area coefficient (for reducing Identify the area) and so on. Specifically, a difference between the matching value and the first recognition threshold may be calculated, thereby to determine a target adjustment factor corresponding thereto. Based on this, the second biometric control information is adjusted, control parameters may be flexibly adjusted, thereby facilitating to improve recognition efficiency.

207, second biometric information is acquired.

208, a second biometric recognition is performed on the second biometric information, according to the adjusted second biometric control information.

209, when the second biometric information is recognized, a next unlocking process is performed.

The other steps in the foregoing embodiment of the disclosure may refer to the corresponding steps of the unlocking control device described in FIG. 1C.

Therefore, control parameters of recognition processes can be determined to be suitable for the environment, the recognition processes are controlled based on these control parameters, and the control parameters can also be dynamically adjusted, thereby improving the pass rate and the efficiency of the multi-biometric recognition.
